The Magic Porridge Pot
Is that true or did you hear it
on the BBC ?
The problem a BBC journalist
has to overcome, they are taught,
is the mastering of the art of objectivity and subjectivity. They must rise above their own notions, prejudices
and beliefs and move towards a rationale
of objectivity over
the subject content. The BBC journalist is
taught to analyse the subject
within itself ( the ordinary, everyday
person) and rise above and be objective
over, them. Once the BBC journalist has mastered that gift, they have gained the title of objectivity, the spell
books state...
Objectivity to the BBC is a
form supremacy, one which truly
proposes a more objective theory about the ordinary person and its
‘ordinariness’ of the others everyday
lives and practices. A mystical gift no less! One
that the BBC holds dear. The executive committee has the spell to release the contents of the magic porridge
pot, no less. A mystical gift indeed!
The problem inherent with this
' mystical gift ' is not in the ‘ not ordinary’ persons’ ability
to try to be objective or even the attempt to be as objective as one
professional can be. No! that
is not problematic! The problem with the BBCs objectivity, when studying and analysing the ordinary
person, as a subject, is the
auctorship, authorship or the mastership of authority and ownership of the ordinary subject and its
ordinary subjectivity. They forget to
say : ' Stop little pot...Stop!'
A messy mess of porridge Indeed !
Any assumption in the power of the BBC elite, that thinks they are objective fails to recognise that the BBC , typologise
, re tell and analyise the ' others' story in a self delusionary way. For
example, If we ask any BBC journalist to
retell their own story then we may encounter problems of subjectivity of
ownership, editing and re telling of any
story. If we question the BBC shall we all drown in porridge?
Or shall we shall we all say ; ' stop little pot stop! '
Or shall we shall we all say ; ' stop little pot stop! '
